DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Peter by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Peter:
Dygert-2 and Deichert-99 appear to represent the same person because: While the birth dates and death dates dont match, they are both married to Anna Elizabeth Fox. She is also duplicated however. The source I found states the Johann Peter Dygert was the son of Werner and brother of Severinus. I will also propose matches for Anna Elizabeth Fox-108 and Fox-14385. Also Severinus is listed twice under his father both as Peter Severinus Dygart-3 and Severinus Peter Dykert-4.
